Quartzite "Fusion Fashination": a masterpiece of nature from Brazil

The quartzite "Fusion Fashination" is one of the most fascinating discoveries in the natural stone world, not only thanks to its exceptional beauty, but also due to its versatile application.

The multi-coloured veins make this special granite so popular; they seem to meander through the stone, creating visually stimulating patterns and attracting attention in any setting.

 

Origin and characteristics

The quartzite "Fusion Fashination" is mined in Brazil, a country known for its rich variety of high-quality natural stones. The peculiarity of this granite lies in its composition. 

This quartzite is composed primarily of quartz, feldspar, and biotite (these elements define the material’s vibrant colour palette and unique vein configuration). 

A metamorphic process, that took millions of years, transformed this rock. Over the course of these years, the Earth’s crust plates moved and collided, pushing the sandstone to great depth, where the sand grains melted under strong pressure and great heat. Then they recrystallized and turned into quartzite.  

The colours can vary from deep blue to emerald-green, ruby red, and silver-grey, therefore each slab is unique.

Durability and maintenance

"Fusion Fashination" is not only beautiful to look at, but also very practical. This quartzite is known for its incredible hardness, which makes it resistant to scratches, heat and impact, thus ideal for kitchens and bathrooms. Although one might assume that the surface of this material is vulnerable due to the intricate veins, the maintenance is surprisingly easy.

Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is enough to maintain the splendour over time, for this reason the material is considered a long-lasting investment for any real estate.

A polished surface emphasizes all the aesthetic properties, and the material becomes more resistant to atmospheric agents and dirt, at the same time, maintenance is easier, and the material’s longevity will be increased.
